Games can sometimes affect us and mess with our emotions, in both positive and negative ways -- and among the latter, there are some moments that make us question what we're witnessing, or even doing ourselves.

Hello and happy...

BlizzCon is returning in 2023 on November 3-4 and if you were still hoping to attend BlizzCon 2023, the last round of BlizzCon ticket sales is still happening.

Join us as we discuss our hopes and fears about the future of Blizzard games now that the Microsoft/ActiBlizzard merger is a go, the new wild-west themed Showdown in the Badlands Hearthstone expansion, all the wonderfully druid-centric features in WoW’s upcoming patch 10.2, and how Diablo 4’s new Season 2 is much more engaging than the disappointing Season 1 content.

Slay the Princess is out today Monday (last minute delay due to Steam certification issues) and I am super excited. I’ve been wanting this game since it first appeared on the Steam store last year, and I didn’t even bother with the demo because the description had me sold and I didn’t want to split up my time with it. I even named it my top GOTY candidate for 2023! Now I just have to hope that I actually do enjoy the game. Although I don’t know how I wouldn’t, because this description sounds phenomenal:

You’re on a path in the woods, and at the end of that path is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin is a Princess.

You’re here to slay her. If you don’t, it will be the end of the world.

She will do everything in her power to stop you. She’ll charm, and she’ll lie, and she’ll promise you the world, and if you let her, she’ll kill you a dozen times over. You can’t let that happen. Don’t forget, the fate of the world rests on your shoulders.

You’re not going to listen to him, are you? We’re supposed to save princesses, not slay them…

I’m not a huge horror game fan, but this level of psychological trickery is right up my alley. But since I can’t play it quite yet, why don’t we answer some questions?

We are only two weeks away from the first in-person BlizzCon since 2019, and I am getting really hyped.

Diablo 4 Season 2 is now live and players have once again been tasked with defending Sanctuary from an otherworldly threat.

I don’t know what I did to my computer for it to threaten me like this.

I was going to use a header image of the Titans from WoW because of Zuel’s question but the picture of BT from Titanfall 2 came up so there you go, my new headcanon is that the Titans from WoW look like the Titans from Titanfall. 

Marvel SNAP rolled out the next Featured Location of its Bloodstone season, Fogwell's Gym, and we’ve been working the speed bag to find awesome decks for you to try out there.

Welcome to Diablo 4 Season 2, where you can play out your vampire-slayer fantasies like a virtual Blade, wielding Vampiric Powers against Lord Zir and his undead hordes.
